Go to MY Products in your account...you will see a message with the new Jam Points

I have to say... I've been chasing tones down dark alleys and nearly pulled the trigger on Helix Native this morning until I saw this. I know Neural and Helix are different beasts but it took no thought whatsoever to plonk the same amount of money down on two NDSP plugins and not look back. They are resource hogs, no question, but to me they are SHEER INSPIRATION. That alone is worth me upgrading my machine at some point to handle 7-8 instances without bouncing. The joy of instant sonic quality frees me up to actually record instead of constantly tweaking. Eliminating so much digging and experimenting to rid a sound of artifacts and buzz without killing definition and "feel" is priceless. Sorry to gush. It's Friday and my night is free and I scored Gojira and Nolly at half off and the fridge is full of drinks. Don't send any help.

Too bad you cannot convert Jam Points directly to Gear Credits! ?

Shutting the browser didn't help. The only thing that worked was going to My Products. A dialog shows up saying what was added then. Just logging in wasn't enough.

My first attempt at making a theme, currently a work in progress.

For those guitarists here that like to tinker, it is worth signing up to StewMac newsletter. I had looked at acoustic kits a long time ago, and they are a bit more complex and pricey; but they sent out a sale newsletter Monday (4/5) and I never really looked at their electric kits, which are pretty impressive. Please note that some of these kits will NOT ship outside of the US, as the only thing they are missing is the logo! The electronic kits are more pre-fab, so is really the assembly/finishing of them. Finishing kits are also 50% off and embedded into some of the kit options, but I wanted to point this out for folks. Example: an "LP-Style" flame top with no finishing kit is $209.99, with a Cherry Sunburst finishing kit is $274.71 (and comes with the stock pickups), which is pretty cheap in comparison to many other options out there (and the necks are already done to boot). The neck being done is actually a HUGE deal, since other options that are less expensive usually have crappy fretwork on them. They have most styles on sale, including acoustics.

Wait to our King Lar hears about this

Jam Points? Nah, got some 400 of those. I need Gear Credits. Gimme some.

Its all about demand. We had a working partnership with Softube when we were selling SONAR. Now that its free perhaps its not such an attractive business justification for them. If enough customers ask for it they may reconsider it. We do plan on introducing some more prochannel modules in the future but like everything its gated by time I also plan on making a new VST3 prochannel specification to allow VST3 plugins to expose PC functionality (today it is VST2 only) If any developers are interested in writing custom prochannel modules contact me and I can share the specification.

valid for approx 10 days https://neuraldsp.com/

Just a thought.... I like the added Subforums which in reality should have been done (and was lobbied for) from the beginning. However, wouldn't it have also made sense to move the Deals forum up with the Subforum big boys? Deals include both Hardware & Software and is one the most trafficked on the website IMHO. ....just a thought.

Houston we have a problem haha Buying what I don’t need is my middle name

Good question. This is all I could find on IK FAQ: Custom Shop Gear Credits are the currency of the Custom Shop. They can be purchased either in the IK webstore or in the Custom Shop and used to pay up to $0.5 per credit (see more below). With the Gear Credits in your Custom Shop account, you can use those towards purchases of a-la-carte gear in the Custom Shop or towards Collections that appear in the Custom Shop. I have added the bold type to highlight what I think are the keys to using GC. They are not Gear Credits to be used to buy anything. They are Custom Shop GC. They can only be used in the CS, and if IK offers a new product in the CS, then you can use your GC to purchase it. But if IK doesn't offer it in the CS, you out of luck. If you want that new item that's not offered in the CS, and you have many GC in your CS account, your SOL. I have purchased stuff in CS using GC because I can get a discount buying them. But I don't buy much more than what I need.

Lightweight. Mine is $322. Those are hard to use now since I have IK everything.

The recent deal for $299 was good enough for me since I got AT5 Max, the rest of TRacks, and Modo Drums, and B3.

Have often thought of doing a kit over the years. With a quality neck (frets in and finished) it is a very desirable guitar. I bought one from a guy already made with a Performance neck, Floyd Rose Trem, Seymour Duncan and Dimarzio pickups, and had his friend that worked in a body shop paint it with metal flake car paint, (pin stripes and all!!). Great looking and playing guitar. I played it on stage for years and I would work that trem hard!! Looking back on it now I don't know how I didn't break the arm off the tremelo!! Neck never got loose, stayed in tune like you wouldn't believe. So a kit guitar, done right, is a keeper. I still have that guitar!

Right now I don't see getting anything from them as I got quite a lot already Patience Grasshopper there will be a super sale soon enough ?

Too bad you cannot combine Jam Points with Gear Credits. Or use Jam Points up to 100% of the purchase price. ? *Since Larry's not here, gotta keep IKM on their toes, LOL!!!

Ah thanks - I went into My Products and then to Jam Points and they were added ?

This isn't a bug, but how the sends are ordered. Sends that are sent to "none" are essentially inactive, and will be moved to the bottom, whereas sends to active buses will be ordered in bus order as they appear in the bus section. Because you're send levels are so similar this behaviour isn't immediately apparent - try setting one of your buses to 9pm and the other to 3pm, and watch how they're re-ordered when you change which bus they're sent to.

@Soundwise I did a follow-up on this, but I didn't post it here because it's specifically about the Presonus ProEQ2 - fairly similar to the QuadCurve in Cakewalk, I suppose, though the Cakewalk one has some emulation factor to it with its different curve responses (though there's more to emulation than that and I don't think QC has that), where the PreSonus one is purely a graphical parametric EQ. I wonder if there would be any value in doing one about the QuadCurve separately. If you are interested, it's here: https://youtu.be/ewP97liHClw

This is definitely something internal to the plugin. They should be able to solve it if you give them this information.

I didn't either but they showed up after i logged out and then logged back in Hope to see a winner(s) from the forum!

My greatest fear is that one day I'll die and my wife will sell my guitars for what i told her they cost.

Hi Brian, Yes, the activation limit is only currently set to 1. If you need more activations for multiple computers then please email me at support@anarchyaudioworx.com with your order number, and the name and email address that you downloaded it with and I can change the amount of activations on your account, no problem.

I have transmitted this information and a link to this thread to Tim Shortle at SSL support. Thanks Noel!

That did it, plus logout and log back in

Good one Rex.

Yep, like this a lot . . . right up there with your usual quality standard. Simple and effective. Your vocals are always great, and an excellent job with the harmonies ! . . . since you're still working on this one, well, I'm hearing cellos . . . but that's just me, I love cellos in songs like this.

Don't want to sound like a snot, but this post probably belongs in the Instruments & Effects forum.

??????

I'm now up to $71 in Jam Points.

Fabulous, as always. Wonderful voice and great harmonies! I hate you! ?

I know! It must have been when I sold a couple of licenses for TRacks 3 Deluxe that came with the XChange Producer bundles I bought last year. Now that i look at it, I don't think I got the 25 point gift - doesn't show up in my list of Jam Point transactions.

I would like a way to have cakewalk easily "simplify" or "average" out automation nodes, that were input from a controller. IE: riding fader volume. Example, I use a midi controller to write initial automation. But then I want to touch it up later. I'd like Cakewalk to intelligently remove as many nodes as it can, to make tweaking with a mouse later on, easier. When working on film, I like to do one live pass on score ducking and then clean it up with the mouse. The main issue is that all of my motions are typically slightly late as I'm reacting to the video on screen (as you'd expect unless you have scenes completely memorized). When there are too many nodes, it makes grabbing the appropriate group and sliding it where it needs to go, slightly problematic because the boundary nodes collide. Sometimes it works well, sometimes it doesn't. There is a CAL for removing every x nodes, but that's too imprecise to really be useful to me. Other DAWs have simplify functions. I'd like Cakewalk to do so as well. In the screenshot, Red shows the actual automation written and blue shows an example of about what I'd like cakewalk to do. Almost like a quantize-ish function (not quite, but I think you get what I mean.) I know I can just draw a new line with the mouse, but I'd prefer to not make 1000 spaghetti nodes all over the place. Thoughts?

Thanks @Noel Borthwick. I am in contact with them and will post back results here from my inquiry when I get more feedback. I do agree that it does not seem to be Cakewalk related and I posted here mostly because this forum is so full of knowledgeable people. But the only thing that bothers me is that all instances stop working at the same time. Do different instances of a plugin share common code or memory that would explain that they would all stop working together? It would also mean that the two different plugin, channel strip, and bus compressor, would share common ressources. I am a software developer but I have no experience in VSTs. Are they a bit like DLLs and share common resources?

Thanks for the info, that helps! That probably means there is something in my installation that is causing the problem. Strange though that it is the only plugins that exhibit this behavior...

Perhaps your firewall is blocking some needed messages. Can you check it's log?

Thanks for chiming in, Steve, and for the freebie of course.

Most likely this is a clock issue. Any time you are synchronizing two or more different machines there must be a common clock or they will drift apart.

How do you know you like it? And why? Right! You must've had some experience using it and got at least a general idea how this EQ is different from others. It can easily take weeks or months. No one's willing to spend this much time on each track. That's why we all need tutorials and howtos on basic to advanced sound processing.

Ample China Qudi is the third virtual instrument from our Ample China Series which includes: -Ample China Pipa : https://www.amplesound.net/en/pro-pd.asp?id=30 -Ample China Zheng : https://www.amplesound.net/en/pro-pd.asp?id=35 Here's a new video featuring our Zheng. Thank you to Tremendouz for the making of the video:

Erhu , Duduk , I will send the idea to the Team. Thank you all for the good words! Here's another demo for Ample China Qudi from Tremendouz. He went for a happy power metal vibe

HI:) To clarify some button actions here a short video: (I'm doing videos but it takes time) In the video I do: 1. Press Shift button, switch to Bank 2, change Send 1-3, press Shift and the Rotors change Send 1-3 Pan! See mouse pointer. 2. Press Ctrl button, use Slider 1 to Move from bar 1-127, the slider is at the end, now I press Ctrl Button and the Slider is now endless, the upper half do move forward, the lower half backward. 3. Another Shift and Ctrl is to Double Press (within 0.4 seconds) the Transport/Mode buttons (Record Arm, Solo), faster to reach:) I like this more than the normal Shift and Ctrl. I switch back to Preset 1 Bank 1. 4. Short Press Button 9 (Mute) / 5. Double Press Button 9 opens the Control Bar 6. Long Press button 9 copys the selected clip, Move Data Cursor and press button 11 to Paste, press Ctrl for endless rotor 7. press button 12 for "Undo" 3 times / 8. Press Shift button, Shift + Button 9 selects left clip, button 10 right clip 9. Double Press Button 10 opens Multidock, Shift + Long Press Button 9 gives focus to previous TAB, Button 10 next TAB. 10 Double Press Button closes Multidock So we have 5 different actions on Short Press, Double Press, Long Press, Shift and Shift Long Press on just 1 Button and 1 Mode, this was Normal Mode. I have 10 different Modes, so the in principle the Button has about 50 different functions:) Not really, but it could be! So this is what is possible with AZController! A lot.... Bassman.
